Dear Parents,
This week, we’ll learn about “A Wife for Isaac” (Genesis 24–25). As Abraham grew old, he wanted to find a wife for his son, Isaac, from his own people. He sent his servant on a journey, trusting God to help. The servant prayed for a sign, asking that the right woman offer water for both him and his camels. God answered quickly, and Rebekah, a woman from Abraham’s people, did just that. Rebekah agreed to return with the servant and marry Isaac. Through this, God showed His faithfulness, just as He sends Jesus to seek and save us.
I hope this message will inspire your child to grow in the love and light of Jesus. To help reinforce the lesson at home, please discuss the following points with your child:
- God’s Faithfulness: Talk about how God answered the servant’s prayer and provided the perfect wife for Isaac.
- Prayer and Trust: Discuss how the servant trusted God’s guidance and how we can trust God with our needs too.
- Jesus Seeks Us: Explain how God sent Jesus to seek and save us, just like the servant found a wife for Isaac.
Pray with your child, thanking God for His faithfulness and for sending Jesus to bring us closer to Him.
Grace and blessings in Christ,
Danny Sungshin Park
